Hardest thing I’ve been through: One night when I was 11 I randomly felt homesick while I was visiting my dad and something between both of my parents must’ve hit a breaking point because they both separately talked about my life and a bunch of random stuff that wasn’t even important. My dad took me home and told me to wait in the car. And both of my parents just unloaded on each other I could hear and see everything through the windshield and I just sat in the passengers seat and cried as they fought like I’ve never seen them fight before. It’s my least favorite memory and that incident still has some lasting effects on me regarding both of my parents.

[@OpenCarry2024]

Well that is a huge problem with our world & society as a whole. There is way too many people that think "Because they do not like something" or because "Something rubs them the wrong way" that they should be able to get what they want. I see it all over on youtube in various ways. One example out of MANY that i can come up with is when someone is doing something completely legal and within their right BY LAW - Then a Karen or Man Karen comes by flipping out because they don't like it, or they don't think it should be okay or that its not legal WHEN IT TRULY IS. Then the karen/man karen starts bugging out about it. What comes to mind is my favorite quote ever - " My rights DO NOT END were YOUR FEELINGS start" If someone has a legal right to do something, then people should STFU and deal with it. But they don't. The problem lies with society, people thinking they should be able to get whatever they want.

The girls day story? Or the stolen car? I'm just asking for clarification because that time stamp is at the very end of the car... If it's the girls day shit then, yeah, definitely good for him. I've been excluded from my family events regularly as well. In my case they used the fact that I had children as the reasoning. I want even allowed to get a babysitter in order to attend the events and it was extra painful because, while I was being explicitly excluded, my best friend at the time was being included. These days, my ex friend lives with my mother and I've been told I have no choice but to accept that she's an important part of my moms life and I'm meant to just get over any hurt feelings but also I'm not welcome at her home because she bought the one breed of dog I'm terrified of since I was mauled by one when I was 4 and she doesn't want to have to worry about me feeling uncomfortable or something so I should just send my children out of state to visit with her.

As far as baby talk couple I'm betting that there was more than one conversation with his partner about this prior to this incident. She probably was very much aware of how much he hated it and how much it humiliated him. He was not the jerk for this unless he left her without the resources to obtain other transportation!

[@lolarichter9415]

I'm guessing you don't have kids. She's a stay-at-home mom. The ONLY person she talks to is a literal baby. It's literally the most normal thing that new moms do. We ALL do it. It's literally programmed into us. Conversations don't change hormones nor does it change the fact that her main social interaction is a baby. He should just spend more time having actual adult conversations. He sounds like a horrible partner and honestly he's probably an absent father at best. Otherwise, he'd have some understanding of what she's going through

Regarding the Story 4, the Baby named Karen: He is not the Jerk, quite the opposite. Everyone else is the Jerk for allowing damage to a baby being done by calling the name lovely. He was the only good person in the room, for he stood up and risked being at the receiving end of hostility to help that baby. That is one of the things that for me make the difference between an acquaintance or buddy and a close friend. A true friend is someone who is willing to get into a heated argument with you to protect you from making a big mistake. A true friend values protecting your well being over not ruining the mood.

[@shinocampo1850]

He should have told her sooner though.

[@shellthemagicdragon4646]

The narrator said the Karen thing probably won't stick around a long time. That's what I thought when I was pregnant and struggling to find a name my husband and I agreed on. Lol "oooh, it's just an intent fad. It'll blow over in a couple years, DEFINITELY before she's in school..." I now have a 6 year old who decided she wants to go by her middle name... As far as I know it's just because she likes it (I think it sounds more like a princess name, that's probably why) but it still makes me feel guilty in case she overheard a lot of Karen stuff or something. As far as I know she's never been teased for it, but I still feel bad because who knows...

And friend b is highly misunderstanding the Bible. I sincerely hope and pray for friend a’s healing.

Yeah friend B handled that extremely poorly. Sounds like that prosperity Christianity that says "convert and good things will happen to you" but I'm pretty sure the bible says that if you convert you will be persecuted for your faith.

[@Lalainelan]

In my opinion, the one that wanted the same gift as the stepbrother is Not A Jerk. The parents should treat the kids equally. I know from experience how hurtful it is to be treated differently like that. When my brother in law got remarried, all three of his wife's kids got a car for their 16th birthday. When my niece (my BIL daughter) turn 16, she got nothing. They were suppose to go on a trip out of state for her, but then the wife decided she wanted to go somewhere else that she liked. She hated that the trip was for my niece, so she decided they would go somewhere else where it would be about her (she likes everything to be focused on her 🙄). Anyways, a few months ago, my niece was able to get a car that she is currently working and paying for herself. We can write a book on all the things this woman does lol

[@arntry8072]

The story at 16:00 , he should have sued them. Since he has legal ground for that and considering internet age, that family could have easily gotten punishment they deserved aka lost of revenue whatever business they have.

[@skill.issue.]

This would be the opposite As the Op would lose if he took legal actions because the mother is allowed to name her child what ever she wanted (INCLUDING THE father) especially the mother, Id most likely would just cut off all ties with her family and if Stephanie wont understand then I cut her off too and wait until the pregnancy and if she decides not too change the name then I either cut with ties all permanently or temporarily id choose temporarily and id wait until she realizes her biggest mistake of her entire Eternity

The jack/john story reminds me of one of my ex coworkers, he was new and he'd always ask me questions like "how was you weekend" or "what's happening after work" and then when I'd answer, he would berate me for not speaking load enough "SPEAK UP!! I CAN'T F***ING HEAR YOU!!". No one else had this problem with me, everyone else could hear me fine. Also, he didn't have a problem hearing anyone else, even someone I have trouble hearing, and he has complained on multiple occasions that my whistling (I'm very talented) is too loud and really hurts his ears. So instead of answering him anymore, I chose to completely ignore him. (There were multiple reasons for this, he went around and said that I told him I did meth and stuff like that) he hated this. He'd complain to other workers and the managers that I wasn't listening to him and he also claimed it had caused him to hurt his back. He once made a comment about my intelligence, where I made the dumb mistake of retorting then He followed me to the back of our work shouting "WHAT THE F****S YOUR PROBLEM TOM!? WHAT THE F****S YOUR PROBLEM?!" this ended in a harry potter moment: Him "you think you're so tough staring at me? Me "I don't have to think it mate" He then went to the managers and accused me of doing all the things he's been doing to me, to him instead. and demanded I be fired immediately, saying he'll get his lawyer and his union involved, that I'm on drugs, and all that stuff. Luckily my coworkers got behind me and wrote statements contradicting everything he's been doing and saying. I don't know what happened to him, but I still have my job and he's gone. I still don't know what his problem was, why he was such an ass, and why I was the target. But its over now.

[@danimalheiro2415]

@@DonJulio1942 getting divorced is probably the worst option in this scenario, the husband wouldn't be able to support himself and he'd probably have nowhere to live, no dream is worth ruining your life over.

The story of the Karen and her spawn, who threw Lego and climbed the ladders reminded me of when I worked in a wallpaper store (Scotland , late 1980’s). A little boy was running around and I was thinking he was going to knock the cans of paint over, he was about 5-6 years old. He ran full on at the window and bounced off. His mother ranted that we should have signs on the window. We did , just above his head height. Lol

On the topic of the baby-talk wife, I can agree that having a husband/wife/S.O./friend that talks like a baby is an absolute NIGHTMARE. Seriously. I have an entire school's worth of friends/familiars that I have to be around that are immature, and I'm not kidding, being associated with people that do this. Having to explain to student teachers and subs that my classmates do this is the worst, as I basically have to say "Hey, FYI, my classmates are a bunch of hellspawn/gremlin who do X and Y, and sometimes Z or W" just so they even semi-understand. I honestly can't fathom what the husband has to go through on a daily basis.

[@aubarlowe]

agreed. Especially because--it's not JUST about "money." Your job is your entire *livelihood.* If she lost her job because of him, they BOTH would've been shit out of luck, with nothing to support them, because she was the breadwinner. And since that was the only job her niche degree allowed her, that meant she'd be screwed for life unless she completely relied on him, etc, etc. As someone who's in a REALLY difficult life situation due to financial reasons and trouble with jobs, I COMPLETELY back her decision.

About the vegan one, she was not the jerk. People don't understand that when you go enough years without eating meat, eating even a piece of it could have serious consequences, as your stomach is not used to it anymore. Meat is one of the hardest meals to digest, and she was really lucky it didn't give her a stomach ache. I, for example, can't eat meat because it gives me stomach acid in such a way that more than once it ended up burning the inside of my throat. Just imagine the many possibilities and outcomes that prank could have had.

In the story about the mother wanting to see her kids after being imprisoned. I grew up in a similar situation. The OP is absolutely in the right for keeping the children away from the mother. Not because she's a jerk, but because overall it's what is most likely best for the children's welfare. This is my story in a nutshell for example. My father's parents had custody of me at the request of my father. He passed away in a tragic accident when I was 3 years old. My mother was an alcoholic, an addict, and a few other things I'd rather not discuss. When I was younger, my mother had visitation rights, but she was almost never there, (usually drugs, alcohol, or other illegal activities usually were more important apparently) so I usually stayed with her family. I eventually decided at a young age that I didn't want to go on the visitations at all. It very soon became apparent that I must not have been important enough in her life to even acknowledge... I am now 46 years old and the last time that I spoke with, gotten a phone call from, recieved a birthday card from or even seen my mother was when I was 5 years old,...41 years! I have a sister and a half-sister who were both raised by my mother, and I hardly ever seen them growing up. All 3 live less than 100 miles away, and don't ever bother to call, text, or visit. Fortunately, I work with one of my uncles, my mother's brother, and he tells me all the time, that it's for the best that they aren't in my life.

I once was in the bathroom for over an hour before she let me go home, by which time everything was behind. I had called in at 2 am when i was supposed to come in at 6am, telling her i have been up with this sickness, but she told me to come in anyway. Needless to say, I came in, and set her behind schedule, all because she said to come in anyway.
